The Coming Dark Age
$40.00
Vacca, Roberto. Anchor Press / Doubleday, 1974. Softbound. Translated by J. S. Whale. A frame-transcending fog encompasses Craig Carl's cover illustration to this work of futurology by engineer in computer-and-systems Vacca, who tracks the vulnerability of industrial societies and predicts a post-collapse retreat from technology and return to a more primitive lifestyle. The idea for the book came after the 1965 Great Blackout of the US's East Coast, and its theme of systemic collapse remains more relevant than ever.
Tight, square spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Only very gentle shelf-wear. 232 pp. Featured Rare & Collectible.
